Chapter 248: Pretentious

Before the end of work, Li Guoguo knocked on the door and came to the office.

Seeing Li Guoguo put on a harmless smile, Mo Yan’s temples throbbed.

“What’s wrong to come to my office to look for me?.”

“Mo Yan, isn’t It Saturday tomorrow? I want to invite you to go shopping, okay?”

Mo Yan disagreed a million times in her heart, but she still did not say it out loud.

She pinched the space between her eyebrows and asked: “If you have something to say, just say it! Don’t beat around the bush.”

“Hehe! Mo Yan, how do you know that I have something to ask you?” Li Guoguo’s smile was bright, and she was not polite at all.

Mo Yan was completely convinced. She would not visit for no reason. Did she not know what kind of person she was?

Just as Li Guoguo was about to speak, there was a knock on the office door.

“Come in.”

Mo Yan looked up. It was the company’s finance department.

“Supervisor Mo, there’s a document that I need you to check and sign.”

“Okay, I’ll take a look first.”

After saying that, Mo Yan glanced at the time. There were only twenty minutes left until the end of the day.

She said to the finance department: “Is this document urgent? If it’s not urgent, you can get off work first. I’ll check it and give it to you Monday morning.”

The finance looked at the time and nodded: “Okay.”

After the treasurer left, Mo Yan picked up the document and started to check it seriously. Other than wanting to work with her when she talked about business, Li Guoguo basically had nothing to talk to her about at work, so she put Li Guoguo aside first.

This check lasted for an hour, which was already far beyond the time when she was supposed to get off work. However, she did not expect Li Guoguo to still be waiting for her when Mo Yan raised her head. This was a little unusual.

Li Guoguo had always been free to enter and leave her office whenever she wanted. This was the first time she was still waiting for her when she was working.

“What is it? Tell me!” Mo Yan said as she tidied up the table.

“That’s right! Mo Yan, I heard that the Mo family is going to hold a charity banquet soon. Mo Yan, Can you give me an invitation?” Li Guoguo’s eyes were full of hope as she spoke.

Mo Yan frowned. She did not understand what Li Guoguo was thinking.

Since she had a way to find out about the Mo family’s party on Saturday, how could she not hear about her and Mo Lian’s incompatible relationship?

Putting aside whether she could get what she wanted at the party, if Mo Lian knew that she had a good relationship with her, she might be humiliated at the party.

“That’s not a good place to go. I suggest you don’t go.”

Li Guoguo’s face fell: “Mo Yan, I just want to go and take a look! It shouldn’t be difficult for you to get an invitation letter from the Mo family, right?”

“My relationship with the Mo family is very poor. If I didn’t have to go, I wouldn’t go.”

Hearing Mo Yan’s words, Li Guoguo’s face turned even uglier.

“Mo Yan, I just want to take a look. It’s just an invitation. Please help!”

Li Guoguo’s tone was a little off, but when she thought of the need to get an invitation through Mo Yan, her tone softened.

Mo Yan was a little impatient from her grinding. She rubbed her throbbing temples and said: “I can indeed get an invitation, but I have to make it clear that if anything bad happens at the banquet, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

Li Guoguo only heard the first sentence, but the rest of the sentence was selectively ignored by her.

“Mo Yan, you’re so nice! I love you to death! I heard that the banquet is tomorrow night, so the invitation letter…”

“Give me your address. When the invitation letter arrives at my place tomorrow, I’ll find someone to send it to you.”

“Okay! Mo Yan, then I’ll wait for your good news tomorrow!”

After saying this, Li Guoguo skipped out.

Mo Yan looked at the tightly shut door and fell into deep thought. In the past, when she saw Li Guoguo like this, she would always laugh at her childish temper. But now, when she saw her, she only felt that she was pretentious.

She did not understand why Li Guoguo was in the mood to call her Mo Yan. Behind her back, she was thinking about how to get some benefits from her.

She and Li Guoguo did not have a deep relationship, to begin with, and it had been exhausted by the repeated schemes. She felt annoyed and nauseous at the thought of having designs on her friend’s husband.

All of a sudden, Mo Yan felt that it was great to have a close friend like Xu Wan as a comparison. At the very least, it would let her know who was the scheming one. For example, Xu Wan would not do anything like Li Guoguo.
